    Two words: Tienanmen square. If you have anything that resembles a defense of that you’re a POS. And you do.

      The holocaust

      The Bengal famine

      The potato famine

      WW1

      WW2

      The Vietnam war

      The slave trade

      Immigrant concentration camps

      Apartheid/Segregation

      If you have anything that resembles a defense of that you’re a POS

      Imagine thinking the June 4th incident -where around 300 people died, slightly less than half of those people being unarmed PLA soldiers- can be used to condemn a system as large as China while every capitalist country has done much, much worse.

      Hell, say the cultural revolution, say the post-civil-war famine, the way the cpc handled them can reasonably be criticized, and they are, by the current cpc.

          Yeah you’re right, we’ve got to destabilize a country of 1.4 billion people over 300 deaths more than thirty years ago

          Thousands of extrajudicial killings by US police every year? What’s that?
